Sacred, Sacred Soul

My Sacred soul sister passed

Around the full moon

Trudy Pitts was our

Truly Gifted Pianist

May God Rest Her Soul

She always aspired

For excellence in music,

And the best in life

Twenty Eight Thousand

Five Hundred Ninety-Nine Days

And Still Not Enough

She graced us on Earth

From  Nineteen Thirty Two ‘til

Two Thousand and Ten

The incomparable

Trudy Pitts, our beloved

Musical Genius

Defied all genres

Classical, Gospel, Blues, Jazz

She played them all well

On her piano

Or on her Hammond B-3

“Buckets Full of Soul”

We can never get

Enough of her magical

Musical presence

We can’t forget her

Beautiful legacy of

Love, Laughter, Kindness

Twenty Eight Thousand

Five Hundred Ninety-Nine Days

And Still Not Enough

Twenty Eight Thousand

Five Hundred Ninety-Nine Days

Days! Days! Days! Days! Days!
